Artificial Intelligence Technology in Career and Technical Education Pathways is sponsored by New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE).

It supports districts in developing innovative, project-based learning experiences that integrate AI competencies, creating real-world industry-connected learning opportunities, building partnerships with business and industry leaders, and providing professional learning for CTE educators. Grantees are expected to provide three AI-integrated project-based learning modules for each approved CTE program of study, curriculum/teaching resources, and a professional development plan for CTE educators. A formal partnership with a local business is also required.
